@feehan_paddy Hi there, timing points in the journey help regulate the service and allows us to provide a reliable timetable. Our timetables account for some congestions on roads, so this can vary. Thanks

@BeeNetwork If a driver is waiting for ten minutes at a stop because they’re allegedly ahead of time then why have they left the previous stops so early? Your system is a mess

Good morning, Tom signing in 👋 we’ll be here until 8pm this evening to help you on your way! Don’t forget to check for disruptions to your journey by visiting our travel alerts: beenetwork.com/travel-updates… 📱 Have a great day!☺️

@milko689908 Hi there, this was relayed to the team/depot to look into. We don't always receive a response from the team, but if you can send me your contact name and email via DM, I'll be happy to log a complaint on your behalf. That way, the team will get back in touch. Thanks

@BeeNetwork Was there any update on this?

@BeeNetwork can you explain why the number 15 bus to Flixton has just failed to stop at the stop on kings road in Stretford just past the Quadrant despite my 81 year old father having his arm out?

@Pengwyynn_ Hi there, I'd advise contacting the team on 0161 244 1000. Thanks

@BeeNetwork my overnight payment for the bus bounced, will you try and take this again or do I need to contact someone to get this re-taken?

@sazzy257914 Morning, this service operated with a 19 minute delay due to the driver reporting a fault with the vehicle. We're sorry for the disruption to your journey.

@BeeNetwork 6.13am Number 7 from Manchester road retail park to Ashton didn't bother turning up this morning. I'm now going to be late for work. It is the worst service, either late or just doesn't turn up.

That's all from us today, Laura signing out! We'll be back with you from 7am tomorrow morning 👍 Don't forget to check before you travel by visiting our travel alerts hub to see any disruption to public transport: beenetwork.com/travel-updates 📱 Enjoy the rest of your evening! 😊

@IanOTimelord Hi there, sorry for you wait - a vehicle is currently being checked by techs at Trafford Bar, however services should be on the move soon.

@BeeNetwork Currently stuck on an East Didsbury tram at Cornbrook. Any idea when we'll move?

@AnthonyMullane Thanks, can I check did you email hello@beenetwork.com? You should receive an automated email with a reference number from this email address.

@BeeNetwork Sorry no reference , header was “ service permits”

@BeeNetwork need a telephone number to contact your team please . Tried emailing but had no reply .

@AnthonyMullane Do you have a reference number for your email? I can chase this with the team.

@BeeNetwork Looking to speak to someone regarding “service permits”

@AnthonyMullane You're welcome!

@BeeNetwork Brilliant quick response, thankyou.

@GEndsor Hi there, sorry to hear this - please can you get in touch with the team on hello@beenetwork.com and they will be able to look into this for you.

@BeeNetwork been on bus today 163 to and from work, on both occasions my card is rejected despite the fact that it works everywhere else same happened a few weeks ago do not responded saying I need to replace it...other people have similar issues

@DeludedDominion Hi there, please can they fill in the lost property form here, and the team will be able to get in touch if it's been found: tfgm.com/help-and-conta…

@Only1NicolaMCFC Hi there, please can you get in touch with the customer relations team on hello@beenetwork.com? They will be able to look into this for you.

@BeeNetwork Is there any chance services on Oxford Rd will be reviewed before September when students return? Being honest the bus that only goes to Owens Park is pointless & doesn’t help dangerous overcrowding on other buses

Sweeping improvements are coming soon to the #BeeNetwork. 🐝 More night buses, brand new routes, more frequent services and more! Read: bit.ly/4uCF5pl

@Emamwh3 Hi there, I've asked the control room for more information and they have said this is due to essential gas main repairs which will unfortunately make the route impassable for all vehicles during this time.

@BeeNetwork You can’t cut off two villages with no train stations? What are we supposed to do? @AndyBurnhamGM I thought these services were supposed to improve? It’s so bad.

@Emamwh3 Hi there, the road closure will be taking place between New Road and Waterside, with services missing out this part of the route.

@BeeNetwork That won’t affect the bus route at all? It’s off the road it won’t block it? It’s just another excuse. @AndyBurnhamGM this isn’t a valid reason to divert the bus. There is no water street it’s water lane and it’s a small road leading to some houses. It’s off the main road.

@adswsmith Hi there, please can I check what service this was on and at what time?

@BeeNetwork @MayorofGM can you please explain how to hop onto a bus service after your tram has failed its journey if you have tapped on? Bus drivers won’t accept passengers explanation as to why they need to board without paying?

@Emamwh3 Hi there, the control room have confirmed this is due to roadworks on Water Street. We will get this information added to our website and app asap.

@BeeNetwork Why are you diverting the 237 bus for 4 weeks? Missing out Tintwistle and Hadfield? What are local people supposed to do? Especially the elderly? This route is getting beyond a joke @AndyBurnhamGM

Services have now resumed on the Eccles line with some delays. Thank you for your patience.
